When embedding a Swipe Map in a single slide of a Sidecar layout in ArcGIS StoryMaps, we don't have a quick way for the viewer to identify the titles or content shown on the left and right sides of the map being compared. In regular swipe maps not embedded in a sidecar slide, you can fill out the caption below the map, but this is not an option in the Sidecar layout. The caption is not the perfect solution, but would be an improvement over the current Sidecar layout. I would prefer to have some type of floating title appear above each side of the map to easily identify the content you are comparing on the left with the content being displayed in the right. For instance: "Data from 2000" vs. "Data from 2020".
I have tried to use the Legend for this purpose, but in Swipe maps, a single legend is shown on the left side of the map with items from both sides, which requires additional text explanation for the viewer.
I am currently adding 2 sketch layers to the maps that display the year as text to get around this issue, but it looks unprofessional.
